WOMAN TAUNTED FOR HUGE FEET OPENS STORE
A woman branded the Jolly Green Giant by SOLE-crushing school bullies for her whopping size nine feet has had the last laugh by opening a shoe shop for big footed girls.Louise MacLellan, 40, was given the nickname as her feet grew to those of a grown man and children mocked her as the gargantuan cartoon figure.But after being made redundant last year she has HEELED some of the wounds to start her own business - a shoe shop for women with shoes sizes eight to 11. At school, she walked around in masculine Doc Martens shoes and her parents had to foot the bill at expensive specialist shops in London.Fellow pupils would sing the Jolly Green Giant advert's jingle to make her cry as she was forced to wear mens' shoes to fit her ever growing feet.By the time Louise was 11 she was 5 ft 10in and dwarfed fellow pupils and teachers at her primary school.
